Before the outbreak of Coronavirus, we were already facing a loneliness epidemic amongst older people, but now this crisis has intensified, and this winter will be the loneliest yet for the older people most in need. Now more than ever, Age UK East Sussex needs your help to raise urgent funds. We cannot let older people suffer alone. Not this year. Not Ever.
In these challenging times, good news is hard to come by. So check out our news page for our latest updates, campaigns and good news stories.
Age UK East Sussex has now supported fifty older people living in financial hardship via the Winter Grant Scheme, awarding small grants to help with the cost of food, energy and water bills and other expenses. We can also help with information and advice on additional benefits, grants and support to ease the burden of energy bills and costs this winter.
To find out what support is available to you, please call our Information and Advice team on 01273 476704 or email information@ageukeastsussex.org.uk or click below to find out more.
We would like to say thank you to all of the volunteers who have stepped up to help us protect the most vulnerable throughout this Pandemic. As we are continuing to offer our CERT Service we are calling on all of you brilliant people out there to give a bit of time to help if you can. We know it isn't easy and will support you as much as possible.
In line with current government guidelines, our shops and warehouses are now closed and will remain so throughout the duration of the national lockdown. We are unable to accept donations of stock at this time.
Thank you to our customers for your continued support and we look forward to welcoming you back once it is safe to do so.
